No I meant since it's behind the 2nd row of seats will it change in sound or cabin tuning freqency

Good question on how it will sound. I don't think it will change a tuning frequency unless you have your cabin tuned, which would require that you already have a wall. I don't think it would change much but I am not positive. Good Luck

no one will know how it will sound until you build it..

yeah wanted to keep the back seats but i wanted to try it out. don't want to mess up and be stuck paying to build it and just have it not sound right

 

[orangecounty1 10+ year member]

itll sound fine, just build it lol

 

[thekidrock 10+ year member]

yeah thinking about it. i wanted to compete in drive by also so i'm not sure if a regular ported box or back wall will be better

If you are competing, Id recommend against a rear wall. A wall will undoubtedly put you in some sort of unlimited, modified or even professional class. You will be competing against systems with walls located directly behind the driver's seat.

A wall mounted behind the rear seats does not produce any distinctive sound, if that's what you are asking.

I'll be building a 3rd row wall for 4 18's pretty soon. Only disadvantage I can see is you don't shrink down the cabin like a normal wall would. This is just a daily driver and he needs room for a BIG amp and bunch of batts, so this seems to be the best way...

oh i see. would it be fine to do it like that? since there is so much room in the cabin and the wall is pretty far away
